Very unfortunate Disney has decided to push social politics over making enjoyable movies. Blade is such a good character.windows central is reporting it as exclusive to the xbox platforms
Xbox and Bethesda's Arkane Lyon reveals Marvel's Blade during the Game Awards 2023
Arkane Lyon is tackling the Daywalker himself, with Marvel's Blade announced for Xbox and PC.
Blade is pretty much a franchise in decline. The original made 130m ww , blade 2 155m ww , blade trinity made 135m ww. The last movie was in 2004 so almost 20 years ago. The reboot from disney is rumored to be halted due to the script placing 3 females as the lead with blade being more in a back seat role. It makes sense as the first multi female lead marvel movie just opened to the smallest opening weekend ever for a disney marvel movie and Disney has already announced they wont report box office numbers for it as its basically dead https://www.newsweek.com/disney-marvels-global-box-office-1849207#:~:text=The Mouse House, which owns Marvel studios, announced,this title," Disney announced on Sunday, per Variety.
So my guess is that MS got the liscense for a song and a dance and both Disney and Marvel are banking on game pass to help making this a thing. The movie was originally supposed to release in 2025 but who knows it could be pushed closer to the launch of this game since arkane is saying work has only just started.
Yeah, as I’m beginning to learn from this forum, Women suck!
Both Arkane studios have done fantastic games, I have no idea what you're talking about.
If Dark Souls and Baldur's Gate and Elder Scrolls can have mainstream popularity, I really dont understand why an immersive sim cant. The genre name almost belies its real nature, which is really just a first person action-adventure game with RPG elements and decent player freedom. There's no reason such a concept should be inherently niche. They're not especially complicated, they're not especially difficult, they're not on any extreme ends of anything, and there's studios that can make them with AAA presentation levels.
What is that based on? How many lesser known marvel characters are out there pushing spider-man 2 numbers ? THe 3 blade movies combined made half of what the amazing spiderman 2 made at the box office and that was considered a bomb that Sony had to quickly move on from.
Well hopefully they are making changes and disney gets on a better path of content
There is nothing wrong with female lead movies. There are plenty of amazing ones out there. The problem is when you create female lead movies in male dominated genres that heavily cater to a niche of the female market with lead women that aren't likeable and dislike their own audience. The first movie had the luxury of being sandwiched between infinity war and end game and marvel pushed that people needed to see it for end game. But people found out it was a bad movie with a bad lead actress. Miss Marvel is a failed comic book character who is basically a fan fick self insert from the creator and the comic itself has been canceled and rebooted multiple times due to bad sales. The Disney plus series was also poorly received. The third lead was a side character in wandavision that got powers by walking foward through a magic field. There is very little character building for her and no one really knows their power.

And the obvious platform size differences… and exclusivity is the easiest thing to announce. The only time MS has ever been hung up on announcing exclusivity, is really because it wasn’t fully exclusive.
I agree with you but if my post give that impression i wasn't clear enought (or my english is too bad
)More than likely
Microsoft and Xbox announced 'Marvel's Blade' at The Game Awards — but could it also be coming to PlayStation?
Microsoft creates confusion, as usual.

My fear is more the context of production could remove in huge part immersive sim from the equation than the capability of it to be succesfull if present.
You can announce exclusivity to platforms without announcing consoles. We’ve seen it many times, we’ve also seen a long trend of behaviour where if MS doesn’t immediately announce exclusivity (once the title is announced) it is likely not fully exclusive.
